Socials

We organise a wide variety of social events, e.g. pub crawls (on foot and by bike), brewery visits, presentations to our Pubs of the Season. We also hold a monthly branch meeting. At these, there's a concise agenda, but the formal business never lasts long and is conducted in a fairly light-hearted way. We discuss anything and everything to do with beer and pubs. Come along and swap pub and brewery news, help us choose our Pubs of the Season, find out about our plans for social events, get your hands on Ouse Boozer as soon as it is published and generally discover what makes the branch tick. There is always plenty of time for socialising during the evening and newcomers are always welcome.
